Network Services will be replacing a core router at Harris Hall on Sunday July 23rd starting at 6pm.  A network outage is expected to be minimal as the network cores are redundantly designed, however there could be a brief reconvergence. All of the PE's that connect to the Harris core also have redundant connections with the Poca core.  This maintenance should be completed by 11pm.

Network Services has successfully completed the Harris core router replacement.

During this 6 hour window, the network including wired, wireless, and VOIP/phone should be considered completely offline at all listed locations.
